Chapter 364 Another Battle of Dimensionality Reduction

The Argos region, the Arcadia region, the Sparta region, and the Pylos region, these four regions are all backward regions without gold mines, silver mines, and no copper mines.

Although there are coal mines in Arcadia and iron mines in Sparta, in this era, no one conquered Arcadia and Sparta at the same time, and then used the coal mines in Arcadia to smelt Sparta. iron ore in the Darfur region.

In the history of another world, the Dorians conquered the Peloponnese Peninsula, but chose to settle in Sparta instead of the agriculturally developed Pylos region, apparently in order to control the iron mines in Sparta.

Because the Dorians are the overlords of the Peloponnese Peninsula, they can use the coal mines in the Arcadia area to smelt the iron ore in the Sparta area.

In this era, the Argos region, the Arcadia region, the Sparta region, and the Pylos region cannot even use bronze weapons for soldiers. The Kingdom of Athens, which has already used iron weapons in large quantities, waged war on these regions Naturally, it is a dimensionality reduction blow, like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, bringing these four regions into the territory of the Kingdom of Athens.

During the process of gathering [-] troops to gather in the city of Athens, Roy would be glued to Procne and Philomela every night.

In a blink of an eye, it was the third day of Roy's wedding.

The Royal Palace of Athens.

Roy was sitting on the golden throne in the palace hall and diligently handling government affairs when Hippolyta and Phyllis suddenly walked into the hall.

Seeing the figures of the two, Roy put down the pen and paper in his hand and said.

"Queen Hippolyta! Princess Phyllis! Is there anything else you want to buy?"

"We want to buy iron weapons and food, will you sell them to us?"

Hippolyta said pretending to be dissatisfied.

"Because you refused to sell us the most important things, Phyllis and I plan to leave."

Phyllis continued.

"We are about to leave, do you really not consider selling us some iron weapons and food?"

Roy explained helplessly.

"Queen Hippolyta! Princess Phyllis! I have told you many times that the weapons of the Kingdom of Athens cannot be exported. Although grain is not for sale in the Kingdom of Athens, it is also a question of whether the grain of the Kingdom of Athens can feed the population of the Kingdom of Athens. I will not sell the grain of the Kingdom of Athens until the grain of the Kingdom of Athens is rich enough to be sold abroad. Because for me, it is my greatest responsibility as the king of Athens not to let anyone in the Kingdom of Athens suffer from hunger."

After listening to Roy's explanation, Hippolyta smiled with a complicated face.

"Although you make me a little dissatisfied as a man, you are impeccable as a king. I sincerely hope that you can rule our Amazon tribe just like you ruled the Kingdom of Athens."

"I have enough food to feed the Amazon tribe for a year, and I will definitely conquer the Amazon tribe and turn you, the Amazon queen, into my trophy."

"As long as you are willing to marry me, I can submit to you directly. You are not needed to conquer our Amazon tribe."

Because I not only want to conquer your Amazon tribe, but also transform the Amazon tribe into a farming nation!

If Roy does not make any changes to the Amazon tribe, Roy can become the king of the Amazons ruling the Amazon tribe as long as he conquers Hippolyta.

But Roy changed the Amazon tribe from a nomadic people to an agricultural people, and everyone in the Amazon tribe was affected.

Without the Athenian soldiers putting gun blades on the necks of all the Amazon tribes, even if Hippolyta gave the order as a queen, they would not be able to be transformed into farming people by Loy obediently.

"Queen Hippolyta! Princess Phyllis! I will arrange a ship for you and send your purchases to the port of the Amazon tribe. I hope to see you among the guests when I get married next month .”

It was the tenth day of July.

Two thousand elite soldiers with iron spears and three thousand soldiers with bronze spears all came to the city of Athens.

night.

Roy was glued to Procne and Philomela until late at night, and then said while hugging the two.

"Good sisters! Although we're only on the tenth day of marriage, I'm leaving you again."

Procne and Philomela hugged Roy's arms from left to right, and Procne put his head on Roy's shoulder and smiled wryly.

"The great King of Athens is either on the battlefield or on his way to the battlefield. Brother Loy can stay for us for ten days, so why should we be dissatisfied?"

"Your words are sour, and you sound very dissatisfied."

"Ahh-"

Philomela bit Roy's shoulder lightly and said.

"If brother Roy cares about our feelings, take us with you!"

"no!"

Roy immediately refused.

"You two must stay and manage the city of Athens for me. I want to issue large and small silver coins as legal tender in the Kingdom of Athens. The purchasing power of large silver coins is fifty catties of grain, and the purchasing power of small silver coins is five catties of grain. Wait until the Kingdom of Athens fully enters In the Iron Age, I will also launch copper coins with the purchasing power of a catty of grain. Procne! Philomela! You must manage the big silver mine in the Lavrio area, and let our craftsmen cast the silver produced by the big silver mine Now I have qualified silver coins, and then I will give silver coins to the soldiers of the Kingdom of Athens as wages, and let the soldiers and their families use silver coins to buy various daily necessities."

"understood!"

"After we married brother Roy, it seemed that our life was no different from the original one."

Hearing what Philomela said, Roy put his left hand on her lower abdomen and said.

"Maybe our child is being conceived here! If you think this is not a difference, then I will only love Procne from now on."

"no!"

Philomela immediately said coquettishly.

"I want to give birth to brother Luoyi with my sister. As much love as brother Luoy gives to sister, he will give me as much love as possible."

After speaking, Philomela began to take the initiative to attack Roy.

It wasn't until the sun rose that he fell asleep tiredly.

Luo Yizhong left Procne and Philomela full of reluctance, and left the city of Athens with Io and Callisto with an army of five thousand.

Port of Piraeus.

When Roy boarded the ship with an army of five thousand, Hippodamia suddenly appeared in front of Roy.

"Princess Hippodamia, have you left yet?"

Seeing Roy's surprised expression, Hippodamia explained calmly.

"I was going to leave, but I stayed when I saw that you were gathering an army in Athens. King of Athens! I heard that you are going to conquer the Argos and Arcadia regions. Please send us the Iris region Conquer together too! As Princess Elis, I will order all the people in the Elis area to serve the Kingdom of Athens. And I am willing to be your concubine just like Io and Callisto, even if you let me be a maid That's fine too."

Roy said helplessly.

"You should think about it again! My conquest of the Elis region will not only drive your father Oenomanos from the throne, but also push Ares, the god of war, from the throne of the patron saint of Elis."
